temporary move or permanent? If you find a company interested in hiring you, it should be easy to get a working visa. A permanent move may be more difficult.

I agree with you, I meant that from outside America it just seems rather pathetic, I hope it doesn't pass. Its a bit like the UK Digital Economy act that went through in 2010 which is similar to the French HADOPI law. How is it in the publi

By making a video like this and then spending time creating the product, could this be used against patent litigation if someone else files against them before they sell? ie. Can it be used as proof?
